A body sliding on a smooth inclined plane


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 280 People


a body sliding on a smooth inclined plane requires 4second to reach the bottom after starting from rest at the top. how much time does it take to cover one fourth the distance starting from the top

Answered by admin @



S = u t + 1/2 a t²

a = g Sin Ф,  where Ф = angle of the inclined plane   
u = 0

Hence, s is directly proportional to t².         If distance is 1/4 th  then time taken will be 1/2.

  So  half of 4 secs  is 2 seconds.
